There was nothing to ransom.So, why take me?“Doesn’t it bother you?” the former nurse asked quietly. “If it’s true that Mister Bellevera has killed someone, what will you do?"“I don’t care about his past!” I shot back, glaring at them. My chest rose and fell sharply. “I know Zeke.”I knew him.Not just the surface.Not just the nights we spent tangled in sheets.I knew the smallest, most intimate details about him, the things no one else would ever notice.How could they expect me to believe this?“But what if the person he killed…” she continued slowly, watching me closely, “was someone connected to you?”My breath hitched.“What if it involves you?” she pressed. “Can you still accept him then?”Silence came into me.Cold.It crept under my skin without warning.
-KARINA-MY HEART pounded erotically with every passing second, following every step of Zeke's.He never told me he was leaving today.I had waited outside his office earlier, pretending to scroll through my phone while listening to the secretary gossip with someone over the desk.That was when I heard he had the flight this morning.The words had sent a cold jolt through my chest.I rushed straight to his condo building after that, and just in time. I saw him walking out of the lobby, his hand has a suitcase, while slipping into a waiting car.By the time I reached the curb, the car was already pulling away.I booked the nearest ride I could find, making sure I could still follow him.Now I sat in the back seat, gripping the edge of the seat so tightly my knuckles had turned pale.“Excuse me, can you drive faster?” I snapped. “We’re going to lose that car.”Th
-KARINA TUMABAGA'S Point Of View-IN THE end of that argument, I still won.He came with me to my first check-up.A small, satisfied smile curved on my lips when I saw him standing stiffly beside me in the clinic, tall and unmistakably irritated, as if every second there scraped against his pride.“You could sit, you know,” I told him lightly. “You look like an idiot just standing there.”He didn’t move like a stone. He remained standing the entire time, arms crossed, jaw tight, his expression sour enough to curdle milk.The doctor finished the examination and handed me a prescription for vitamins.I slid the paper across the table toward him with two fingers.“Why?” he asked flatly. “What am I supposed to do with that?”“Buy it,” I said simply.A long, heavy sigh escaped him. The kind said that he already knew he had no choice.
-KARINA TUMABAGA'S Point Of View-HE MUST have thought he could escape me this time.I was already waiting at the reception area when the elevator doors opened. I saw the exact moment his composure cracked. Surprise flashed across his face the instant his eyes landed on me sitting in the lobby outside his office floor.Slowly, deliberately, I ran my hand up and down my stomach, slow enough for him to notice and see how it had begun to swell.His gaze dropped there. The darkness that settled across his face deepened as his brows knotted. He strode toward me, his steps sharp and impatient. Before I could stand on my own, his hand clamped around my arm and yanked me up from the sofa.“Ouch! Wait! Hey, that hurts,” I protested, wincing at the tight grip digging into my skin.His jaw locked as he spoke through clenched teeth. “What the hell are you doing here, Karina?” he hissed. “Who told you to come here?”His eyes flick
KARINA TUMBAGA’S Point Of View“HAVE YOU gotten a job? You’re always going out. You told me you didn’t have one anymore. And where is Celes, your friend with the fancy car? "Wasn't she the one who got you that job?” my mother asked.I h
